TSYS School's Linqiang Ge Wins 2026 Turner College Excellence in Online Teaching Award

The TSYS School's Linqiang Ge took home the 2026 Turner College Excellence in Online Teaching Award at this year's Turner College Strategic Planning Retreat. Throughout his brief time in the TSYS School, Ge has worked to achieve and maintain excellence in online teaching, to ensure student success in the online learning environment, and to retain students in the TSYS School's academic programs. "I've embarked on a journey into online teaching, navigating through virtual classrooms and digital landscapes to deliver quality education to my students," Ge explained to Turner Business. One of the primary challenges Ge initially encountered in terms of online education was maintaining student engagement in a virtual setting. To address this, he redesigned course materials to be more interactive and visually stimulating. Incorporating multimedia elements, interactive simulations, and gamified learning activities helped sustain student interest and participation throughout the online sessions. Moreover, he leveraged collaborative tools like Google Docs and GitHub to encourage peer-to-peer learning and collaboration on coding projects. Online teaching in computer science is an evolving process that requires continuous reflection and adaptation. Ge regularly solicits feedback from students through surveys and informal discussions in order to gauge their learning experiences and identify areas for improvement. Incorporating student feedback, he occasionally refines his teaching strategies, adjusted course materials, and experimented with new instructional approaches to enhance the overall learning experience. Turner Business congratulates Ge on this outstanding achievement.
